Re: How much LHM in my Xantia
Or perhaps you could pop the float out as described (it's on a bayonet fitting a bit like a lightbulb, twist it anti-clockwise and lift out carefully) and investigate why it may have stuck. It's quite possible it just needs a clean I think.

Re: How much LHM in my Xantia
As has been said earlier in this topic, it would be very unusual for the LHM level indicator to fail.
From the symptoms you describe, I think it is more likely that the pump is sucking in air through a hole in the hose from the LHM tank to the pump. It could just be a loose joint at either end, or it could be a crack in the plastic fitting at the top of the tank.
